In this post, you can ask everything about Barani products, technical details, datasheet, configuration etc
I will do my best to give an answer ASAP with the help of Barani's Staff
please, before to send a request, take a look at the institutional FAQ page

I had a question about how to set up the complete weather station (MeteoHelix Pro + Rain gauge + MeteoWind). I've never found the instructions on barani's site particularly clear to be honest... I don't even know what terms like "sigfox" and "lorawan" mean!
From what I can tell the MeteoHelix is a MeteoShield Pro with the temp/hum sensor built in, with an option to add a rain gauge. Then you have to activate the station by scanning a code or something and then it will start sending data? With regards to the MeteoWind, does this have a seperate "transmitter" that also sends data to the site?
Jasper3012:
With regards to Sigfox/Lorawan, is this some sort of network that transmits data to the site, completely seperate from wifi?

Hi Jasper, Sigfox and Lorawan are transmission technologies for IoT applications
you can deep at this links
https://www.link-labs.com/blog/what-is-lorawan
https://build.sigfox.com/sigfox
At now, you can connect a Meteohelix Pro to Sigfox or Lorawan network and have your data on cloud, on Barani Allmeteo portal
https://weather.allmeteo.com/
Meteohelix pro can give you:
- temperature
- humidity
- dew point
- atmospheric pressure
- solar radiation
You can connect to Meteohelix Pro a Meteorain (when will be ready) and have all data on a single web interface
If you add a Meteowind, at the moment, you will need to have a new web interface, so another account, to see wind data
Meteohelix Pro and Meteowind don't need wifi connection, don't need power, the power comes from an integrated solar panel and a li-on battery, the low consumption can give you about 6 months of charge without any solar radiation
Meteohelix transmission module is integrated, when you will install the Meteohelix you need to create an account on allmeteo portal, activate the weather station with a simple magnet that you will find in the package, and insert on portal the ID of your Meteohelix, that's all
The same for the Meteowind, in this case the power/transmission unit is separated from the sensor with 5 mt cable

So the only thing you need to do to get the data online is scanning the station with a magnet and give in the MeteoHelix ID on the allmeteo website? No confirugation or whatever needed with the Sigfox? Thanks for the info btw!
